Harbor Hospice of Plano | Volunteers Wanted

Assisted Living Community in Wylie, Texas is in need of Volunteers for activities. This is a fun opportunity where you basically get to play games, do art projects, help with cooking classes, etc. The need is for any day of the week for the afternoon activity. Volunteer will help set up, encourage engagement, and assist with leading a variety of activities. You do not have to commit to a daily shift, but you are certainly able to because the need is there.

Harbor Hospice of Plano is seeking volunteers in many different capacities. We have multiple opportunities to lend a helping hand here at Harbor Hospice. From singing or playing music to patients to reading books or drawing, we would love to have you join our team!

Our Office is in Plano, Texas but we serve a 60-mile radius, so if this area is not for you another might be!!!

Volunteers are literally, the heart of Harbor Hospice, providing a special kind of caring and compassion for our patients and their families. Every day, our volunteers make a difference in the lives of so many people. Whether they offer a listening ear to patients and families, assist with daily household activities for patients, provide grief support, serve as a companion to loved ones or share their personal expertise to help promote hospice care, the time given to Harbor Hospice families by our volunteers can be the most rewarding experiences of their lives. As a volunteer for Harbor Hospice's Patient Care Services, you "do good" every day. It takes a very special, caring person to give of themselves as unselfishly as our Harbor Hospice patient care volunteers. If you'd like to be a part of the Harbor Hospice team, here are some examples of the activities you can assist with:

  • reading to a patient, or holding a hand
  • staying with a patient while family members take a needed break or keep an appointment
  • shopping or doing errands for a patient
  • listening
  • helping patients write or tell their life stories
  • light household chores
  • providing help with makeup and hair
  • Veterans needed to honor Veteran patients at bedside/share stories together
